Acute Care Performance Guidelines

Acute Care Performance Guidelines are standards that healthcare providers follow to ensure patients receive timely, effective, and safe treatment during their hospital stay. These guidelines help measure how well hospitals and staff are performing in delivering high-quality care, such as reducing wait times, preventing infections, and ensuring proper treatment for serious conditions. The goal is to improve patient outcomes, ensure consistency in care, and promote accountability within healthcare facilities. Essentially, they serve as benchmarks to guide and evaluate how well acute care is being provided in emergency and hospital settings.
